well usually a good soil will come with nutrients in it for maybe 3 weeks. Then when you feel your soil is running a little depleted you will start adding your GH nutrients.

I started using Promix HP. It is inert; it doesn't have any nutes added at all. I absolutely love the stuff. I use it from seed all the way through flower.

I buy it from my local grow shop for $35 for a 3.8 cubic foot bag.

This is actually a good thing to do OP. Going peat soilless is awesome and produces huge huge yields. It can get tricky, you just need to know how to read plants is all. As far as ff goes, i have a few mothers in ocean forest and it runs dead around 2 weeks or so. But its good stuff. Im a soilless guy as far as flowering goes sunshine #4 all day long.

To be honest, my Promix is exceptionally well at buffering variations in pH, so you shouldn't have too much more difficulty than in soil as long as you nute 1/4 dose after the first two weeks a couple times a week. By the time my seeds are 3-4 weeks old, they get full manufacturers dose.

If you can grow in soilless medium like this from the get-go, you'll be able to grow and understand your plants in any setup.

Sorry about the crappy pics I just snapped, these are my two day old babies in Promix HP, and the larger ones are Cotton Candy that have been in flower for only five days, after a 7 week veg. Plants were transplanted into 3 gal pots at 4 weeks veg.

I do nothing special. I use auto drip feeders that I need to refill every five days, and only once out of every five refills I check pH. As long as it's between 6 and 7, my plants flourish.
